18th century coat of arms carved from a single piece of wood. I’m not certain what kind of wood, most likely pine or fir. The carving on this has been done by a master carver. There are oak leaves, acorns a lion and birds as well as scrolls. I estimate the date this was carved at late 1700’s to early 1800’s, so the piece is about 200 years old. The wood was carved and coated with gesso then painted in a polychrome of green, blue and red with gold gilding on the edges. The paint is all original and has some wear. No over paint or touch up has been done. There are pieces of wood broken off mostly on the top and bottom. I think there were holes to mount it which broke off. On the back is a more recent (but old) addition of a heavy duty brass hanger. The patina and wear to the paint is fantastic on this piece. I have tried to trace which family had this crest. Tenax Et Fidelis is latin for persevering and faithful. The Abdy family of England uses this motto for their crest but the coat of arms is different. The abdy family traces back its baronetcy to 1641 in England. This is a rare and authentic historic piece which looks fantastic hanging over a mantle or doorway. The piece is 12″ wide by 10″ tall and 3 thick. A heavy piece It weighs approx 3.4 pounds. From a smoke and pet free home.

Nice vintage hand carved wood sculpture done in a folk art style of what looks like an Amish or Quaker man. Stylized features in his face and clothing with the black hat, blue pants, white shirt & suspenders painted on his back. I cannot correctly make out the artist’s signature – E. It’s signed on the bottom upper left corner and dated’88. This looks like a faux weather vane or whirligig- the arms and head do twist but the arms cannot go around in a 360 degree circle like a whirligig would. It’s well made, there is a condition issue with one of his feet that can come off of the leg peg and it is cracked a bit – please see last photo. There’s also a bit of paint wear on his left hand and some minor aging to the overall paint. It really is an interesting piece, wish I knew more about the artist or it’s origin. From toe to toe he measures approximately 20 1/4 long. The entire piece is 11 1/2″ tall & the wood base measures 14 1/2″ long x 2 3/4 wide.

Just look at it. This Antique Wooden Sculpture comes from Spain. And represents the arms of Toledo. It features the crowned double headed eagles with the shield of Castile and Leon at the center (represented by the castles and rampant lions). Surrounding the shield, with a sheep suspended by a ribbon at the bottom. Is the collar of the order of the golden fleece. Hanging Wire on Back. IT WAS WASHED IN A LIGHT GOLD PAINT. Arms of the city of Toledo. Coat of arms of the city of Toledo (Spain). Toledo’s arms are allegedly a grant of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor. (Charles I as King of Spain). The coat of arms of the city of Toledo consists of the imperial double-headed eagle Sable. (black) bearing an escutcheon with the arms of Castile. In point a pomegranate as in the current Spanish Arms. Surrounded by the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece. And crowned by the Imperial crown. The eagle is flanked by two figures of kings seated and bearing the attributes of their dignity: sword and scepter. An old privilege granted by the king, Peter of Castile. (Parliament) celebrated in Valladolid. In 1351 1389 of the Spanish era. , stated that the arms of Toledo are those of the monarch. During the reign of Charles I, the city definitely adopted the emperor’s arms, and those are the present arms for the city, adding the figures of the kings, remembering ancient city symbols. The head on the left (West) symbolizes. The head on the right (East) symbolizes. Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. Use of the double-headed eagle. Is first attested in Byzantine art of the 10th century. Its use as an imperial emblem, however, is considerably younger, attested with certainty only in the 15th century, i. At about the same time the double-headed eagle was also adopted in the Holy Roman Empire. There are speculative theories according to which the double-headed eagle was first introduced as a dynastic emblem of the Komnenoi. From as early as the 11th century. Emperors appear to have used the double-headed eagle often as ornamental emblem on their robes etc. During the 13th and 14th century, but only in the 15th century as an emblem on coins or seals. In the 15th century, the double-heade eagle was first used as an emblem by the semi-autonomous Despots of the Morea. Who were younger imperial princes, and by the Gattilusi. Who were Palaiologan relatives and vassals. The double-headed eagle was used in the breakaway Empire of Trebizond. Of the 14th15th centuries use the double-headed eagle silver/golden on red/ vermilion. As the symbol of Trebizond rather than Constantinople. Single-headed eagles are also attested in Trapezuntine coins, and a 1421 source depicts the Trapezuntine flag as yellow with a red single-headed eagle. Apparently, just as in the metropolitan Byzantine state, the use of both motifs, single and double-headed, continued side by side. Other Balkan states followed the Byzantine model as well: chiefly the Serbians. But also the Bulgarians. Under George Kastrioti better known as Skanderbeg. , while after 1472 the eagle was adopted by Muscovy. When Ivan III of Russia. Daughter of Thomas Palaiologos. In the modern coat of arms of Serbia. 1882 is derived from the coat of arms of the Nemanji dynasty. (16th century), in turn derived from the Byzantine imperial eagle. Use of the double-headed eagle for Serbia is among the examples of early representations in Western portolans. ONE OF A KIND.
